selma banich – Glasovi/Voices: Heartbreak Party
“Voices“ with selma banich is a research and educational program that aims to bring together artists interested in movement, somatic practices, voice work and self-education.
"We envisioned this meeting as a four-day experiential workshop where we will explore the voice as a medium of community, a resource, and a repository of our individual and collective experiences, states and feelings. Working with the voice through breath, sound and resonance, we will go deep within ourselves and carefully listen to our inner 'canary'. In a shared vigil, we will activate the space for soft practices of active surrender, releasing and receiving. What do voices reveal when we surrender to the song of broken hearts?"
Glasovi/Voices is a collaboration between selma banich, Lana Hosni, Sara Salamon, Adam Semijalac, and the participants of the experiential workshops. This project is a continuation of the artistic research Ode zemlja u led’nu, svak ti šuti istinu and the audio work Ustenjavanje naroda, performed by the Grupa za nove narodne prakse, with which they questioned the imposed norms of patriarchal tradition, created space for psychophysical and emotional self-expression and healing, and practised the right of each person to explore themselves as a being.
The workshop is open to all. Due to a limited number of participants, please confirm your attendance by Monday, 14 October 2024, via email at lana.hosni@hotmail.com.
The workshop is free of charge and will be conducted in everyday language, with translation available upon prior request.
